I have the following model
{{{#!python
class Listing(models.Model):
id = models.TextField(primary_key=True)
foo = models.CharField(max_length=20)
class Meta:
managed = False
db_table = 'listing'
}}}
Based on this model, I perform the following query in a MySQL backend.
{{{#!python
ret1 = Listing.objects.using('mysql')
ret2 = Listing.objects.using('mysql')
ret3 = Listing.objects.using('mysql')
ret4= ret2.union(ret3)
ret5 = ret1.union(ret4)
print(ret5.count())
}}}
Unfortunately, this query crashes with a ProgrammingError exception. The
track trace is
{{{

packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 86, in _execute

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for
the right syntax to use near 'UNION (SELECT `listing`.`id`,
`listing`.`foo` FROM `listing`))) subquery' at line 1")
}}}
The generated query is
{{{
SELECT "listing"."id", "listing"."foo" FROM "listing" UNION SELECT * FROM
(SELECT "listing"."id", "listing"."foo" FROM "listing" UNION SELECT
"listing"."id", "listing"."foo" FROM "listing")
}}}
Note that although MySQL crashes, the query above seems to be a valid
Postgres query.
